When their sea level rise predictions were failing, US government agencies simply moved the goalposts, and made up fake data.

“Petermann Glacier in Greenland is getting smaller, according to NASA and glaciologists, not larger, as claimed in social media posts saying that the glacier has defied news reports by growing three metres a day for the past 11 years.”

Growth of the glacier has averaged 3.3 meters per day since 2012.

Antarctic sea ice is close to the 1981-2010 median edge and growing, and extent is considerably larger than peak extent in 1966. But the press says it is an “extreme low” and “signals a permanent shift.”

“in August 1966 the maximum sea ice extent fell to 15.9×10 km ± 0.3×10 km .”

NASA shows that sea level rose at a rate of 0.9 mm/year from 1950 to 1995, and then accelerated to 3.3 mm/year from 1995 to 2018, but I can’t find any tide gauges which reflect that change.

Projections of accelerating sea level rise from NOAA were failing badly, so NOAA quietly changed their projections to push the divergence date from 2000 out to 2030.

Technology is starting to catch up with Stanley Kubrick’s vision in 1968.

Shortly before the fall of the Soviet Union, Gorbachev, Al Gore and Carl Sagan were working together to push the global warming scam.

When academics rewrite history and make predictions based on their own misinformation, they invariably end up with egg on their faces.

In 1970, Arctic sea ice was becoming “ominously thicker.”

“The United States and the Soviet Union are mounting large scale investigations to determine why the Arctic climate is becoming more frigid, why parts of the Arctic sea ice have recently become ominously thicker and whether the extent of that ice cover contributes to the onset of ice ages.”

“The Earth Is Cooling, Return of Ice Age Is Feared

Snow banks cover areas of Baffin Island today which were seasonally snow-free 30 or 40 years before the present cooling, J. T. Andrews and his colleagues at the University of Colorado at Boulder report. Similarly, pack ice around Iceland is once again becoming the serious hindrance to navigation it was during the “‘little ice age”

“Another Ice Age?

Telltale signs are everywhere — from the unexpected persistence and thickness of pack ice in the waters around Iceland to the southward migration of a warmth-loving creature like the armadillo from the Midwest.Since the 1940s the mean global temperature has dropped about 2.7° F.”

The 1990 IPCC Report showed a large increase in Arctic sea ice during the 1970s.

Never mind all that history, though.  NSIDC has “newly available data sets” which show that Arctic sea ice has been declining since 1953.

“April 30, 2007

newly available data sets, blending early aircraft and ship reports with more recent satellite measurements that are considered more reliable than the earlier records, show that the September ice actually declined at a rate of about 7.8 percent per decade during the 1953-2006 period.”

Since that report was written in 2007, there has been no trend in Arctic sea ice extent.
